The design of the website and print materials were approached with a law-journal in mind – professional and to be taken seriously in a courtroom while also bold and emotional for the public audience to encourage support

Experience was designed for lawyers coming for research, animal advocates wanting to support the fight, and students who are learning about animal law and where it is going

The moods of this new brand refresh went from law-school academic to a bold activist to a more reserved and sophisticated lawyer in the courtroom.

Logo

Animal Legal Defense Fund's logo shows the protection of animals through the shield and cleverness of lawyers with the fox. The bold typography shows the determination to make change for animal protection through law.

Finding opportunities to provide knowledge and support for lawyers was important, but we also needed to find areas for animal lover activists and the mixed array of components built out a system that could support both users.

These are not soul-less lawyers- quite the opposite-and we wanted to make sure there was room for a touch of humor, the 404 page being a great place for that, while also creating an experience that was acessible and responsive for all users.

Original Site was cluttered and outdated. The ALDF team knew they needed a refresh and wanted to highlight the work they were doing in a professional but still passionate way.
